I started CP about a year ago, wich isn't much. And when I started, I just accepted the fact that tourist is the top rated user.
And that was the case for a long time until Benq became the top rated for a period of time, and now both Benq and jiangly are above tourist in this list, wich got me thinking:
Who was the top rated user before tourist? I mean of course tourist wasn't the first codeforces user and even if was the top rated for a long time there must be period like this when someone is higher than him in the list.
Do you remember any forgotten user who was the best in codeforces one day?

I was solving problems in codeforces as I usually do, but I was a bit bored of thinking about a problem, so I opened my submission to see the test cases that are failing my submission -wich is bad, but I was bored :)- , but something unusual happened.
I was supposed to click this thing one time to show up the tests, but instead I spam clicked it, and the test cases appeared normal, but it reapeared after the 11-th case like this:
Is this a bug in codeforces or it's just my bad internet? Try it yourself.

UPD : codeforces fixed the logo so this blog is out of date, there is no need to read

So , today I opened codeforces to practice some CP , and then I opened my profile to find that codeforces had updated their logo and background to fit in the christmas theme .
But the problem is that the new logo is actually wrong , here is the old logo :

And here is the new one :

You can notice that the order of the colors differ (they swapped red and blue)
can anyone fix the logo so it stays correct :) ?

Today , I was just deleting some photos when I found this photo wich I took when I solved 100 problems , I was happy so I kept the photo and now I found that [user:sus] was in the top contributors on codeforces , But he had Grandmaster rate :

Now , if you go to his page , you will find that he had never been a Grandmaster rated user .

So , can anyone explain this ? // sorry for bad English
